RHD e46 purple tag

So it's flipped upside-down? That might be a good option for my e12. What is the ratio?

Its 3 turn, does 50mm one turn

bought a manual 850i so i didt do much with the e28


but started to do something with the car
bumpsteer spacers och e31 controlarms


better hoses

and new rubbet boots

the nwe hole thru the firewall


"new" steeringshaft



now some new powersteeringhoses left and thinkin what to use for new steering shaft rubber boot

some updates

bought a 370mm refurbished Mtech1 steering wheel



need a longer stab links so e28 links is 240mm

went and bought e39 v8 series 285mm links


looks better now


but then more problems

maybe need longer links or change the rubber boot into more slim version

much better
used a universal rubber boot and 300mm stab links

steering rack on a e28 = success!!
the car feels like new!
all the work was really wort it, now just a aligment left then test on the highway

That's great work Gunay!

You're pushing the envelope here!

Understandable that is a dream car for me to drive one day.

Great work though. I love the look of the grille with that extra chrome line, especially together with the Alpina bumper.

after a aligment, the car is much better

I can't really tell by the video but how is the bump steer? Does the wheel turn back to center without your guidance?

i have no bumpsteer, because i have coilovers and doesnt have to much suspension travel
it turns almost by itself, not like it was with steeringbox

Great work, this project delivers!

I'm totally impressed by the concepts and the execution. Inspiring.

You should build steering rack conversion kits and become a millionaire.
